Best Flight schools for time building
I'm looking for flight schools that are good for time building and pay average to above average.
I want to find a flight school where I could log 100 hrs a month without trying. I have experience instructing and have a CFI/CFII/MEI I have instructed international students before and understand the dynamics and politics involved. My preference would be to find a job in the southern california area. |
Being a cfi isn't just about how many hours you can build.

I spoke to a CFI teaching out of San Carlos (SQL) recently. He said he and his colleagues keep what they charge per hour ($60-75/hr) and at least one of them makes $100k/yr. I didn't argue with him.
I would suggest moving to an area with good weather and lots of rich people with lots of spare time. For LA that sounds like Santa Monica. You're not going to fly 100/mo without really trying however! ;) |

What would you consider a good flight school?
Tecnam P2006T PIC, huh? ...if your looking to build hours fast, then a school with international students would be ideal. You sorta missed the best time to score one of those jobs though. The summer is already here and regionals aren't hiring much right now so a lot of current CFI's are staying put. There are currently more than a few CFI's at the school where I did my training with well north of 1500TT. But good luck. |
